Families without power trying to make the best of a ‘dark Christmas’

For Shawn Lin, his family and 176 others, Christmas Eve was spent at
the Agincourt warming centre in Scarborough.

Twelve warming centres have opened across Toronto to accommodate
those still without power after the ice storm.

As of Wednesday morning, about 70,000 Toronto Hydro customers were
still without power, the majority being in North York, Etobicoke and
Scarborough. A Toronto Hydro spokesperson said crews still haven't
started on localized outages, which affect individual houses, and fixing
those could be time-consuming.

Hydro One said under 50,000 customers across Ontario were still
without power Tuesday evening.

Those without power could spend Christmas in the dark amid an extreme
cold weather alert issued by the city.

“All my neighbours are here,” Mr. Lin said. It was too cold for his
two daughters, aged three and six, to stay at home any longer. They were
planning on visiting Mr. Lin’s brother in Hamilton for Christmas, but
he’s without power too.

Mr. Lin acknowledges the situation isn’t ideal, but said everyone is
making the best of it. They walked down the road from the warming centre
to Agincourt Baptist Church, where snacks, warm drinks and a movie is
being played on a projector. His daughters are having fun playing with
other kids. “We’re glad to be part of a big family,” he said.

Zing Cen and his wife managed to get beds at the warming centre
around midnight on Monday night. They stayed there again Tuesday night.
It’s a welcome change from spending the early Sunday hours in a
McDonald’s, Mr. Cen said. He praised the efforts of Red Cross volunteers
who have been working tirelessly around the clock. “It’s the Canadian
spirit,” he said.

Pastor Matt Simpson, his wife Alyssa and countless volunteers are at
the church lending a hand to those without power. About 60 people,
including many families, dropped in throughout the day.

Mr. Simpson has been trying to get beds set up in the church’s gym to
accommodate overflow from the warming centre. “Part of my frustration is
I’m happy to let people sleep here, but there’s lots of protocol and red
tape,” Mr. Simpson said.

Still, they’re helping any way they can. A turkey dinner for those
without power is being prepared for Christmas Day.

Henry Mak and his wife Frances hope they’ll be able to eat their
turkey at home on Christmas day. The couple were at the warming centre
charging their phones and laptop. Power has been out at the couple’s
home since Sunday, but they’re staying put. They’re keeping warm with
blankets and listening to the news on a transistor radio. Propane was
sold out almost everywhere, he said, but they managed to get some. “We
would like to have a celebration on Christmas,” Mr. Mak said. “We have a
turkey ready – we put it in the garage to keep cold.”

In Ontario December 25, 2013 is a time when thousands of young children
are incarcerated, most needlessly and due to fabrication of evidence by
Ontario's
secretive unaccountable 48 private corporations called "The Children's
Aid Society of Ontario".

Ontario lawyers call them "The Gestapo". Ryerson University have a video
called "Powerful as God" at www.Blakout.ca It's a must view for any
parent in Ontario or thinking of immigrating to Ontario.

Every day, literally hundreds of parents are forced to flee Ontario to
avoid having their children apprehended by "The Gestapo", or "The Baby
Snatchers" who are professional criminals engaged in the habitual
practice of Fabricating Evidence for funding purposes and of course
their own jobs.

Here are some examples.
Marguerite Isobel Lewis is a lawyer for the Children's Aid Society of
Ottawa who personally fabricates evidence in a judicial proceeding, that
is directly knowingly makes false statements to a judge in order to keep
children in care of the CAS to, cover for fabrication of evidence and
obstruction of justice by a Child Protection Worker, Phillip
Hiltz-Laforge.

If you go to court in Ottawa and ask a judge for an order to have your
child returned because the CAS don't have any evidence to justify the
arrest of your child or keeping your child incarcerated, you end up with
a Former CAS lawyer who after many years of working for that criminal
organization, became a judge where they

decide to exclusively hear cases involving their former employee.

Normally ethical judges do NOT hear cases involving their old law firm
however, if you work for the CAS, you have no accountability you are
above the law and therefore the law does not apply to you.

Every day in Ontario, justice is denied to thousands of children who are
kept incarcerated because we have dead beat corrupt former CAS lawyers
turned judge who "rubber stamp" CAS requests which insult the
intelligence of the community.

It gets worse, without fail, in Ottawa Ontario, every single judge of
the Ontario Superior Court turns a blind eye to criminal offences by
Marguerite Isobel Lewis apparently because she is next in line to be
"anointed" to the Judiciary as is the corrupt custom in Ontario to
anoint judges because they worked for the Corrupt Children's Aid Society
of Ontario.

The Ontario Judiciary is riddled with judges who were former CAS lawyers
and it is for this reason, that Child Protection in Ontario has turned
into a Billion Dollar Fraud and Ontario Taxpayers can thank our
Judiciary who give the "Power of God" to
